Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Croissants
- 1 cup Cooked shrimp, chopped
- 1 cup Cooked lump crab meat
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 0.5 cup Celery, finely diced
- 0.25 cup Red onion, finely diced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Dill, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
Instructions
Slice the croissants in half horizontally but do not cut all the way through; leave one side attached like a hinge.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the chopped shrimp, crab meat, mayonnaise, lemon juice, celery, red onion, parsley, and dill.
Sprinkle in the garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Taste the seafood salad and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more lemon juice, salt, or pepper to your preference.
Place a lettuce leaf inside the bottom half of each croissant.
Spoon a generous amount of the seafood salad onto the lettuce, spreading it evenly.
Close the top half of the croissant gently over the filling, being careful not to squash the salad.
Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours before serving for a cool, refreshing option.
